Everything else seems to be working with this upgrade, but my 
NeverWinter Nights game is crashing at startup.

an alias or from the installed program, it simply crashes before 
allowing any NWN data to load and gives me the program crash dialogue 
window.

drives, but haven't tried booting to those and installing NWN on them 
yet. I would rather not have to use one of my backup drives as my 
"gaming" drive, but it appears that I might have to do that in order to 
get back to playing NWN.

I know a couple people who play NWN on Mac, and one of them said that when they updated to 10.3.7 they had to update their video card software and reinstall NWN. They aren't sure which of the two fixed the problem, because they did both at once.

I'd suggest you reinstall NWN and see if that fixes your problem.

Also, the NWN tech support boards are a good place to look. The couple of threads that I perused seemd to indicate that the first troubleshooting step is a reinstall of the game.
